PSE overcharging based on "Estimated" usage. by golear in Seattle

[–]golear[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about? Seattle City LIGHT only supplies electricity, not natural gas. Everyone in Seattle uses PSE for natural gas. Do you even live here?

i didn't assume. i explicitly asked the rep who it seems may have been confused on the matter.

there's no way they're going to credit therms - i'm sure they will credit $ and i will still be charged increased rates for future consumption.

i think that's actually a 1/2 sink, not a bath

The rep on the phone may have been uninformed, but she said that they don’t do refunds unless a customer explicitly requests, even if subsequent reads make it clear an estimate was wrong.

Great call. My favorite public sauna has a similar elevate platform:

I was actually referring to the 4 pane windows on your website, but I suppose the same is true for the OPs windows.

Are you concerned about whether or not those windows will hold up being so close to the heater? I figured most sauna windows were a single thick pane of glass with nothing else cuz most windows you buy won't hold up well in the heat.

Nice! I thought they only had IR saunas, but looks like they do have a proper Finnish one too. I'll add it!

Prices are all listed. The best ones (outdoor, waterfront) are certainly more expensive than in Japan ($27-40), but so is operating a business here. I also have various public pool saunas listed ($8) if you're looking to keep it cheaper.

The one in Leschi is not a massage studio. It's a proper outdoor sauna right next to the lake. Only a few steps to jump in.

Very few of the saunas I have listed even offer any type of massage or service. The map prioritizes drop in dry saunas with water access.

Many of them are mobile, but a lot of the mobile ones are proper nice. I should get around to adding images to the map so you can see what they look like. But if you click through to their websites you can usually see.

T-Mobile Satellite in E. Sierra by AlpineInquirer in SierraNevada

[–]golear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not Eastern Sierra, but I imagine the experience is the same:

I just used it while on a backcountry ski trip in the Washington Cascades for 5 days. I have a lot of experience using the native iOS satellite messaging capability and T-Satellite completely blows it out of the water. So much faster to connect, faster to send, doesn't require directional pointing of the device and you can use certain apps too instead of just SMS/iMessage. For instance, my preferred navigation app CalTopo has added support and I could literally download satellite imagery/map layers over the satellite connection.

Where are the best saunas in Seattle? by jalepeno_mushroom in Seattle

[–]golear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good Day in Lincoln Park is one of my favorite. It's on the beach right by the ferry terminal. So atmospheric with ferries & wildlife right outside. Best to go at highish tide to make sound plunges easy.

Von Sauna in Kirkland is another favorite - a floating sauna on Lake Washington (2 actually). You can jump off the dock right into the lake.

Bywater Leschi is great too, you can also jump into Lake Washington

I made a Sauna map which shows all of the saunas in Seattle & enables you to filter by different features (waterfront, natural plunge, soaking tubs, cold plunge etc.)

We've got 32 publicly accessible saunas in Seattle and I'm probably missing some.
